Charlie Nicholas makes prediction for Tottenham - Newcastle match

Sky Sports football expert Charlie Nicholas has given his predictions for the upcoming Premier League match between Tottenham and Newcastle. Mauricio Pochettino's side got 4 points out of 6 after 2 matches. Spurs managed to draw the game against back-to-back PL champions Manchester City after dramatic ending, which gave fans another VAR action, that prevent City from winning the match. Newcastle, on the other hand, suffers under Steve Bruce. 2 games, 2 defeats, the latest, from Norwich City. "Newcastle lacked ambition and togetherness against Norwich but you can't just point the finger at Steve Bruce and say it's because Rafa Benitez has gone, because they started slow last season too. It takes this team a bit of time to get going. Joelinton had no service at all and Miguel Almiron was the same. He is about pace and counter-attacking but couldn't get in the game." "I was not impressed with Newcastle, but I think Bruce will be working with them all week to say 'this isn't good enough, if we sit in and wait to get beaten then we will get beaten'. They need to have more ambition when they have the ball. The problem is I don't see them getting enough of the ball to trouble Spurs. "Spurs will be quite happy with the way they have started. They were lucky to get a draw against Manchester City but I think this will be a comfortable win." Nicholas added. Pundit believes Spurs will win 4-0 Source - Sky Sports
